Swiss Connection for NWers

My reent visit to Switzerland confirmed my perception that this country is incredibly enthusiastic about Nordic Walking. So I was happy to learn about Meet2Move, a Swiss online community for folks interested in active sports -- and that, of course, includes Nordic Walking. Even though the site is available "only" in German, French and Italian, most Swiss are conversant in English too. It coesn't taken exceptional language skills to find an instructor by postal code (PLZ) of the city or resort you are visiting and check out the calendar of Nordic Walking events throughout the country.

Another connection can be via the English Forum, which includes posts on many topics including finding companions for Nordic Walking and other sports.
